Alright, here's chapter 14! I would like to thank a certain guest, who's always reviewed for almost every single chapter I made. I really appreciate it! Thanks so much! And this chapter will answer all your questions by the way! By the way, sorry if this seems short and not enough. But I promise the next chapter is on its way, and will conitue where this chapter left off. But for now, this is it for you all to read. Anyway here's chapter 14! Enjoy! :)

Beans was making sure everything was perfect. Lights were on. Food looked as delicious as possible. Decorations were everywhere. Everyone who was Everyone was present. Music was working. The cake looked good. And finally, the most important thing. Rango didn't know a thing about the party!

Once she made sure everything was ready, she heaved a big sigh. "Ok everyone! Imma go get him, now! Now when I get back, I want all lights off and everyone quiet and everyone should have a spot to hide in! Then when we're almost here, everyone yell out surprise! Everyone got that!?"she yelled.

Everyone nodded, and some murmured a couple of "oks". She then heaved a big sigh to relax, then went to go look for Rango.

Everyone was busy murmuring to each other, about the event. Even Bella and Tom. The two were talking amongst themselves just like everyone else.

"When is Rango gonna be here? I'm hungry!"Tom whined.

"Just be patient! I'm sure he and Beans are almost here. Now all we have to do is just wait. Then when they come, we'll hide, then we'll eat!"Bella said.

He sighed. "I hope they come soon, before my stomach eats itself!" Bella just shook her head. Then after a while, he spoke again.

"So where's your 'Jake'? Ain't he supposed to be with you, or something?"he asked. Bella snapped her head towards him, and stared at him in surprise. Then she looked.

"Well birthday parties aren't really fitting for outlaws."she said.

"So?"

"So why should he be here. I mean he's an outlaw, so...why should he even be here in the first place?"she said.

"Maybe so he could be with you!"Tom said. Bella's head snapped towards him.

"Well I just... I mean...he... I mean..."she stuttered, until finally she sighed anf lowered her head in defeat. Then she heard Tom chuckle.

"Calm down Belle! I'm just messing with ya!"he laughed.

She sighed and lowered her head even more. Then she heard everyone shushing to each other. She looked around and people were starting to hide. She knew right away, what was happening.

"Come on! Let's hide! He's comin'!"Bella whispered to Tom. Then they both went to take their spots. They all heard footsteps coming closer and some voices.

"So Beans, what did ya want to show me?" Rango questioned. But instead of hearing an answer, the entire town jumped out of their hiding spots and yelled, "Happy Birthday Sheriff Rango!"

Rango jumped and made an unmanly scream, and hid behind beans. He peaked out from behind her, and saw there was no threat at all. Then he got out from behind her, and looked around.

"Well I'll be! What's all this for?"he questioned out loud.

"This is for you sheriff!" waffles said from the crowd.

"F-For me?" Rango said in disbelief.

"Yes you!" beans said. "Happy Birthday!"

Rango just stared at her then at everyone else. Then he wiped away the tears from his eyes. "Why I can't believe it! My own town, throwing a birthday party just for me!" he sniffed.

"My beloved town! Man I love ya all, ya know that!"he said. Then when he looked at the town, his eyes spotted two familiar figures in the back.

"Bella! Tom! Yer here too!"

"Well of course we are!" Bella exclaimed."Why wouldn't we? It's the least we could do! I mean, you've welcomed us to this town and done so much for us, so why not thank you by helping beans throw a party for you!"

Rango tried his best to not burst out crying. "I really appreciate that!" he managed to say.

"Enough crying already Rango!"beans said. "Yer supposed to be smiling, not crying! Now let's all eat b'fore the food gets cold!"

And with that, the party began. Everyone got giant dishes, with huge amounts of food on them. Nobody seemed to care how much they got. It didn't matter if they got way too much, or if theygot plates that were way bigger than themselves. All that mattered to them, was that they got food. And so they did. When Tom came to get his share of food, he got some of everything. Not one food item was untouched by him. He got so much food, that his plate burly had enough space left over. Everyone else's plates were pretty much identical.

Not one single person, was sitting around without a full stomach. Everyone was sitting around with full bellies. Not one single person was the least bit hungry anymore. Even Tom was full! He was groaning out loud at how full his stomach was. Everyone else looked very similar.

Then they heard the music get louder, but it seemed to be in a slow tune.

Bufard turned the music louder and changed the song to a more slower beat, for something beans told him to fo.

Everyone's attention quickly to the center of the street, when they saw Beans trying to pull Rango on his feet so they could dance.

"Come on ya big lug! Let's dance!"she encouraged him.

"Uh.. Beans! Ya know I don't really da-" he sentence was cut short when she pulled him out of his seat and to the dance floor.

The song that was playing was a slow, mellow tune that was perfect for a couple dancing together. (its 'I will be there' by Odessa) Beans and Rango were in the center dancing slowly. Not caring if everybody was watching them. It was as if they were in there own universe.

If you ever need someone to cry to

If you ever need someone to hold you

I will be there

Standing by your side

I will be there

Standing by your side

Soon a couple of other people joined on the dance floor. Mainly couples who wanted to dance together to a nice tune. The mood of the entire party quickly changed from excitement, to romance.

Bella was sitting with Tom at a table. They were watching all he dancers at the dance floor. That is, until little Priscilla ran up to their table.

"Tom?"she said, looking at him.

"Can you dance with me please?" she asked him.

He looked at her with a shocked expression. "What?"

"Oh please Tom!"she practically begged. "Uh...well..."he started to say but Bella interrupted him.

"Come on Tom! Dance with her!"

"But I don't know how to dance!"

"Yes you can! I've seen ya do it before! Now dance with Priscilla!"she then knocked him out of his seat and stumbled towards Priscilla. She grabbed him by the arm and took him to the dance floor. That's when they too started dancing.

Bella smiled as she saw Tom dancing with the little girl. She thought they looked kind of cute. Seeing them and the other couples dance made her think about a certain someone. She wondered where he was. After a while, she decided to get up and slither away.

Tom saw her get up and go, and was about to call her, but then he thought of something. Probably went to go see her 'boyfriend'! he thought. Then he sighed and shook his head.

Bella slithered away from the party and to the more darker parts of the streets. She looked around to try to find the person she was looking for, but couldn't find him. She went from one part of the street to the other, but there was still no sign of him. He had to be here somewhere. She just knew it. She looked around a bit more, but still couldn't find him. She then sighed in defeat, and looked back at the people who were still dancing. She stood there and just stared at them, until she heard a metallic rattle from behind her. She jumped in surprise, and looked behind her, only to see the person she was searching for.

"No matter how many times you do that, I will never get used to that sound." she commented.

He smirked at her then slithered towards her. He then rapped his coils around her then they both looked back at the dancers. She leaned her head against his chest, and nuzzled his scales.

"Ya know, I was looking for you for a little while." she said.

He looked down at her and raised a brow. "Why?"

She shrugged. "I don't know. Just wondering where you were."she simply answered.

He smirked at her, "What? Did ya miss me or somethin'?" he teased.

She rolled her eyes. Then after a moment she looked up at him. "What are ya doin' here anyway?"

He looked down at her, then looked straight ahead. "Believe it or not, I came 'cause of ya." he answered.

Her brows raised up in surprise. "M-me?! But why?"

Jake didn't respond. All he did was stare straight ahead. At that moment, she thought she saw a faint blush in his cheeks.

"You should know by now." he mumbled out.

She raised a brow at him, then smirked mischievously. "Should know what?"she said innocently. He gave her a flat look, then looked away.

"Oh come on! Please tell me?"she begged. "I promise I won't laugh!"

After a moment or two, he looked down at her. She was staring back at him with her big blue eyes. They seemed to shine like big blue diamonds, under the moonlight. He was entranced by them, and couldn't stop looking at them. They stared at each other for a while, before he leaned in and kissed her. They were both lost in the kiss, and were oblivious to everything that was happening around them, not even the gasps that came from the townspeople. Until they heard a heart stopping sound.

SCREECH!

They both quickly broke apart and looked up to the sky. They both gasped out loud when huge talons were coming straight towards them. But before those talons could reach them, Jake quickly carried Bella out of the way, just in time. They looked back and saw a hawk flying straight ahead.

Bella didn't know why, but there was something awfully familiar about that hawk. But she couldn't quite remember. She was then snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the townspeople scream in terror, and frantically tried to find some place to hide. That was when the hawk came around and tried to swoop in again. Its target, was Bella.

Ok that its for now. Again I apologize if this isn't enough. But the next chapter will continue where we left off. And I'm half way done with it. So next chqpter will be chapter 14.5 (just to let you guys know) Then we'll continue with chapter 15. Anyway that's it for now. Please review! The more you review, the more chapters I make! :)
